Joseph and Michael


Joseph John Barretto and Michael David Marton are to affirm their partnership on Sunday in a rooftop ceremony at their home in New York. The Rev. Jude Geiger, a Unitarian Universalist minister, is to lead the commitment ceremony.

Mr. Barretto (left), 34, is the director of fund-raising and communications at the New York City Anti-Violence Project, an organization that provides services for gay, lesbian, bisexual, H.I.V.-positive and transgender people who have been victims of violence.

He graduated magna cum laude from Harvard and is a candidate for a master’s degree in public policy and administration from Columbia. He is the son of Josefina Dueñas Barretto and the late Rodolfo M. Barretto Jr. His mother is a registered nurse at West Valley Hospital in Goodyear, Ariz.

Mr. Marton, 36, is the vice president of two businesses owned by his mother, Agnes Marton: Dentorium Products, a distributor of dental laboratory supplies, and Gam Real Estate, which manages commercial properties. Both are in New York.

Mr. Marton graduated from Franklin & Marshall College. He is also the son of the late George Marton, who founded the businesses and was their co-president at the time of his death.

Naomie Kremer's Ghosts

As part of the Magnes WINDOWS series , the latest installation is by Israeli-born, Berkeley-living artist Naomie Kremer . The WINDOWS series was launched to use the Magnes new facility to positive effect, namely as public art to be viewed at night: to bring more cultural content to downtown Berkeley and in the evenings when the street traffic is less -- to light up the night. Kremer's opening was this evening and we had a really nice turn out, including important local patrons of the arts, collectors etc. Here pictured are Jeff and Jane Green , Penny Cooper (one of the Bay Area's finest collections, focused primarily on women artists with her wife Rena Rosenwasser ). Here Naomie introduces her video piece on Bluebeard's Castle, by Bela Bartok .

Review: Macbeth

Macbeth by William Shakespeare My rating: 4 of 5 stars Four and a half stars, with one major flaw: the producers chose to do this funny little trick of overlaying Cumming's voices when he was multiple characters, namely three weird sisters when they spoke at once. The result was echo-y and distracting. Otherwise, the whole thing felt like the smartest guy in the neighborhood inviting you over to listen to him read, and you cared: knew the story and really wanted to hear how he delivered. It was intimate and rewarding. It also made me think about how it is a story of Scots and English. View all my reviews
